Links to files outside document root.

[GUIR]

Hi!

Can someone please let me know is it possible to link and files outside the document root.

I think actually this is happening in website control panels.

I just want to add some db management files in PHP to secure place. Additional security than user names n' passwords.

Thanks and Best Regards

You cannot "link" to them if "link" means "address them through an HTTP URL." You have to access them as files using a server side language like PHP. Exactly where you can place them depends on how your site hosting is set up. You need to put them in a sibling dir to the docroot.
